Flora and Fauna of the White Clay Creek State Park (DE)

OK, so I cheated a little on this one. These photos are from early August, but it was a great time of year when the wildflowers were in bloom and the berries were ripening.

The trail system is a nice mix of forest and meadow.
Parts of the trail had wildflower fields in full bloom.
And parts were already mowed to be baled the next day. The scent of these freshly cut hayfields were amazing. I totally get Van Gogh's fascination.
Parts of the trail skirt corn fields.
And raspberries are easily accessible close to the trails. Yum!


Best of all, there is actual history along the trail! This stone marks part of the Mason-Dixon line.
